ENHANCEMENTS TO COUPLE

The development and incorporation of the latest enhancements to the COUPLE code are described. The purpose of this work was to ensure that the code runs as efficiently as possible. To this end, several new features and upgrades have been added. These include the implementation of bandwidth optimization routines, updating the code so that it is compatible with version 6.1 of the VAST finite element program, and the incorporation of a number of new subroutines so that matrix calculations for very large models may be performed out-of-core.
